Goodfellas (20th Anniversary Edition) [Blu-ray] Specifications
Martin Scorsese's 1990 masterpiece GoodFellas immortalizes the hilarious, horrifying life of actual gangster Henry Hill (Ray Liotta), from his teen years on the streets of New York to his anonymous exile under the Witness Protection Program. The director's kinetic style is perfect for recounting Hill's ruthless rise to power in the 1950s as well as his drugged-out fall in the late 1970s; in fact, no one has ever rendered the mental dislocation of cocaine better than Scorsese. Scorsese uses period music perfectly, not just to summon a particular time but to set a precise mood. GoodFellas is at least as good as The Godfather without being in the least derivative of it. Joe Pesci's psycho improvisation of Mobster Tommy DeVito ignited Pesci as a star, Lorraine Bracco scores the performance of her life as the love of Hill's life, and every supporting role, from Paul Sorvino to Robert De Niro, is a miracle.
Customer Reviews
I am not "in" Movies now for too long, only a few years. But since I just started film Scorsese was my favorite. When I do a movie if I was better than Goodfellas is the only thing I can say is The Aviator, Scorsese would choose a different picture. I can not tell you what this movie before watching it. You get so drawn into the world will seem to know more bands anyone. It 's a funny film with great replayValue, especially on Blu-ray. The picture seems to slow down a bit '(in 1990 for a film) and add much to the film. Highly recommended!
